Bekhbayar

Bekhbayar is 37 years old and lives with his wife and three children in Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia. They all live together in a ger (a traditional Mongolian nomadic tent) on his brother-in-law’s plot of land. His two eldest children attend a local secondary school and the youngest daughter is just one year old and stays at home with his wife. Bekhbayar has been operating a taxi business in the city for the last one and a half years. He is an energetic and enthusiastic person who says, “I would like to be financially able to provide a good education and cover other expenses for my children.” The loan that he is asking for is to increase his working capital to buy some spare parts for his car.
